The property needs to better represent this is a B&B. I do not recall seeing anywhere in the listing that it was not an Inn. Stairs were steep & narrow, walls are thin and there are signs stating to be respectful to your neighbors and keep any noise to a minimum. Breakfast needs to be scheduled with the host and is prepared by the host (B&B style). That being said, they were very courteous and attentive. Bed was very hard window to room is directly above the sidewalk of the main street through town so we heard people and cars much of the stay…

Hotel was potentially lovely, but I'd picked the only open room (a small double) and it was very very small - we put luggage into the shower due to the lack of room. That was totally my fault. We'd pre-arranged for an early checkin - but staff was not present at the site until normal checkin. Staff also wasn't present on site for morning breakfast until a bit over an hour late. The TV in our room sporadically lost signal, as did the WIFI. I tried using Expedia to message the property about these problems, but they eventually stopped responding (they manage multiple properties and it was a busy weekend in Dingle). On the brighter side, breakfast was very good. The location was terrific. Staff was pleasant enough and certainly worked hard.

Anne had thought of EVERYTHING before we even realized we would need it. The room was comfortable, clean and spacious. The breakfast was amazing and the entire experience was full of little “extras” that made the trip especially enjoyable.

To start, the hostess was wonderful, kind, and helpful. Still, I'm pretty sure we did not get the room I booked, a double deluxe water view. The picture showed a room with a double window overlooking the harbor. Our room had a single window and was the smallest hotel room I've ever seen, much less stayed in (room 5, 3rd floor). I was able to look into room 1 as it was open for cleaning. It was still small but larger with a larger bed and the double window from the listing I booked. The property is very well-maintained, but if I return to Dingle, I will make sure not to encourage this level of claustrophobia.

Loved our stay
The Waterfront B&B was the perfect base camp for trekking out and exploring the Dingle peninsula. The staff was incredibly charming and were ready to field any request. The full Irish breakfast was especially delicious, and the room itself was cozy, comfortable, and quiet. Plus it's a short walk to everything Dingle has to offer. Will definitely set up camp here again for a longer stay next time.

Watch the sunrise on Dingle Harbor! 🌅
We had a lovely stay at the Waterfront! You can not do better on location - the building is right across from the Dingle Harbor and we got to watch a beautiful sunrise over the harbor! The room was very clean and a bit small, but perfect for a couple! The hosts were also very communicative and went out of their way to make sure that our after hours check-in went smoothly. We overall really enjoyed our stay at the Waterfront and would stay again in a heartbeat!

Lovely place!!
We loved staying at the waterfront in dingle! Dingle was the highlight of our trip, we were there during the off season and I’m happy we went then so we could experience the quaintness of the city without all the people. The whole experience from check in to check out was great! Really good made to order breakfast! Thank you for making our stay in Dingle great!

This is the smallest room I’ve ever stayed in. Two people couldn’t stand in it. One had to sit on the bed. There were three closet doors. One has the world’s tiniest commode and basin. The next is a closet but not large enough to put more than one suitcase and the third is the shower! Not for more than one person! Budget room, my ass. Two flights up.
